Line 3 refurbishment and extension would help to & # 39; reduce the amount of turbulence on the route 1,659 kilometers from Alberta oil unit Hardisty to Superior, Wisconsin. Construction is already being completed in Wisconsin and largely completed on the way Enbridge said as far as February 15 that he had planned to deliver this year's service .
